are left closed until short time before

evaporatc, and instead of a pure atmos

The pastors and congregations and Chris

invited TO tent on the ground. The loca-

road The shade and water are abundant
aud very superior. Some Of the most
prominent divines of the Methodist
Church South will attend the meeting.
Among the number are Bishop A. w.
Wilson, of Maryland; Bishop Key, of
Georgia, and others. The Wesly Grove
Camp Meeting will be more largely at
tended than heretofore, which is owing
10 the fact of there being no camp OF the
Methodist Protestants at jackson Grove
this season. In consequence OF this,
large numbers who formerly visited Jack
son Grove will now turn their steps to-
ward the ever popular camp at Wesley
Grove. The officers of the grove are
L. j. Magruder, president, and 5. George
Shipley, secretary. A number of trains
of the Baltimore and Ohio road stop at
Wesley Grove Station during the days of
the encampment, thereby giving many
hours to visitors TO remain at this popular
camp. meeting and return late at night if
